Chapter 147 Expelling People and New Rules
After sending away Grandma Chen San who came to chat with her, Yu Zhu began to work. There were hundreds of people in the Duke's mansion, including servants. There was no big deal, but little ones could not be dealt with. Moreover, Gong seemed to enjoy it very much in the past.
The feeling of being surrounded by people asking for instructions, a group of mothers in charge of things, big and small, kept annoying them. Yu Zhu took a stand and scolded her before she behaved herself. [26nbsp;]
In the future, Cheng Xun Gong will definitely remarry, and he will definitely be the next Duke of the Kingdom. He is only taking over this responsibility temporarily, and if he takes good care of the errands, he will be disgusted by others. He is not as good as Xiao Gui and Cao Sui, who is comfortable and does not complain.
.
However, the advantage must be calculated for yourself. Yu Zhu has many maids as his dowry. They are all carefully trained by Mrs. Cui. They are all loyal and useful. They guard Yu Zhu's main house like an iron fence.
Generally speaking, it is now rare to have the power to appoint and remove personnel. Those maids and women in the yard who have been found to have troubles cannot be retained.
It looks like the weather is bright and cloudless today... Pears, grapes, etc. are all ripe. It's really a good time to settle the accounts. And outside of Guoxiao, there is no scruple in scaring people...
"I'm afraid Madam is going to do something serious." Chanlu, who was following Mantao, was a little uneasy, and a bright yellow satin handkerchief in her hand was rubbed into disarray.
"You are good and have made no mistakes, so what are you afraid of? Madam, you can still punish people for no reason." Mantao glanced at her, holding a pen and writing slowly on the paper, her handwriting was beautiful and quite elegant.
Chanlu responded hurriedly: "My mother... you know, she has brought you fresh silk flowers and ribbons from time to time."
"Your mother? Oh, I took care of you once. What's the matter? Isn't she the one on the stove?" Mantao finished writing one sheet and put the pen away, "Did she do something wrong?"
"No...no, it's just...she had diarrhea that day three months ago, and then a familiar Mama Liu in the kitchen helped her with an errand." Chanlu lowered her voice, "It just so happened that Mama Liu was the eldest wife from before.
The meal that time made several second-class maids in the wife’s yard faint after eating that meal... Mother Liu had been taken away long ago, but my mother was still extremely scared, fearing that the wife would bring out her anger on her.
I couldn't eat well, couldn't sleep well, and wanted to go find my wife but didn't dare... I saw that my wife hadn't taken any action for so long, so I thought the matter had been resolved, but I didn't know that it turned out that I had to leave the country to be a filial piety.
You have the smartest brain, help me think of a way to save her at least." They all saw how powerful this second wife was, and their necks felt cold when they saw her smile. How could her mother have such a big mistake?
Don't beat him to death.
Mantao frowned slightly, thought about it and was about to speak, when she heard a knock on the door, and heard a little maid outside calling softly: "Sister Mantao, Sister Chanlu, Sister Hua Ruo and Mother Yao in the wife's room."
They're here, why don't they tell everyone to go to Dongxiaosaojian?"
Cicada's face turned pale, "What should I do? This is all going to go away." A look of anxiety appeared on his face. Without his mother to protect him, how could his life be so nourishing?
"Just come." Mantao agreed, but anger slowly appeared in her beautiful eyes. They were all maids, so why could they order and drink at her?
When I walked out the door, I saw Caiyun and Bi Rui also walking out of the house. Although the four of them were a little discordant, they still looked close to each other and went to Dongshao Room together.
Hua Ruo has recently started to take care of the house because of Yu Zhu. The more things she comes into contact with, the more stable she becomes. Now her majesty in the eyes of the little maids is not much weaker than that of Yao's mother.
Seeing that everyone had arrived, Hua Ruo began to announce the order of his mistress: "I invite everyone here today because I have something to say." After saying that, he nodded towards Zaoyuan who was holding a book next to him, and Zaoyuan started.
He took a step forward and began to read the names of people: "Xiaoqin, Baoshi, Qingwen, Yicui...Mantao, and finally Hua Mama and Xue Mama."
"That's it for these people. Now go back, pack your things and follow." Hua Ruo put his hands into his sleeves and said with a smile.
Both Mantao and Chanlu were stunned. What Chanlu was thinking was: "Is my mother okay?" Mantao turned pale and was about to leave... and she packed up her things and took them away. Wouldn't that mean she would be taken away?
Drive away and never come back?
"No, why, why are you leaving? I didn't make a mistake." Mantao could no longer maintain her iceberg beauty image: "I want to go find the second master. My wife can't take advantage of the second master's absence to betray us."
Mother Yao was furious and slapped her across the face, "Who gave you the courage to slander my wife and keep silent? Do you think anyone doesn't know about your shameful little thoughts? I'll save you some face for myself."
Not yet."
Mantao was stunned by this slap and stayed in place with her face covered.
"What did you do on the night of May 22nd?" Yao's mother reminded.
Mantao's eyes gradually became blurry, and she remembered that the second master came back late in those days, and she had some ideas. That night, when the second master came back after a long journey, his wife had already fallen asleep, and it was difficult for her to stay awake.
When he arrived, he persuaded the second master not to go in and disturb him like a ghost.
I married my wife and went to the wing to rest for the night. I originally planned to... but the second master ignored me at all. After washing, he went to the main room without looking back... She didn't do anything, no, she didn't have time to do anything.
Ah, how can we drive people away just because of this... Besides, it's been so long.
Zaoyuan, who was watching coldly from the side with a solemn and beautiful face, said in a cold voice: "If you have those thoughts, you are damned. Do you still think that you are wrong only if you really succeed? Those who rush to get in front of men are all cheap, and they are still alive.
Even if you are beaten to death, it will be easy." They all thought so in their hearts. It was difficult to say this before, but now they have more confidence.
It has to be said that Cui's training was very successful, especially the unique mass grave education. To a certain extent, these maids' disgust with concubines was already greater than that of Yu Zhu.
Mantao had no choice but to lower her head with tears in her eyes, knowing that she couldn't resist now. After seeing the different strength of the older maids, the other maids, who originally wanted to complain, also succumbed and felt guilty.
Some of them had run errands to deliver messages to the Gong family, and some had dirty hands and feet and had made too much money, so all of them fell silent.
Mother Xue, who was in charge of the tea room, said with a smile: "My wife has orders, and the servants must abide by them, but... dare I ask where we are going?" She is smarter than the maids, so she still wants to save some face for herself at this moment.
Well, a normal transfer is better than making a mistake and being kicked out, and it will be easier to get along in a new place.
Hua's mother also stepped forward and smiled: "There are so many people missing all of a sudden. I'm afraid there is not enough manpower. How about giving it a few days and waiting for the person who changed hands to get familiar with the job?"
"You two don't need to worry about it." Mother Yao looked around the house full of maids and servants, and said with a pun: "They are all just cleaning, making tea, cooking and other tasks. You don't need to teach them. Is it possible that you have to do it?"
Isn't it possible? As long as the newcomer is loyal and willing to work, the rules will be taught."
After the people with bad behavior records were sent away, Yao's mother softened her expression and said loudly: "If you do well, your wife will see it, and if you do bad, no one can escape punishment.
"
"In addition to what I just said, there is one more thing I want to say. From now on, neither the maid nor the mother can do errands for others or replace others." She took out a pile of paper from the table and stood it up for everyone.
Look, "If there are special circumstances and you have to find someone to take over, you should also write
Who will be next and when? Otherwise, anything that happens during this period will be counted on the person who was originally on duty." Qinghui Academy has long used the duty list exclusively invented by Yuzhu to assign responsibilities to people. It is no longer like before.
Generally speaking, according to the rules and so on, if someone is found in trouble, it is very easy to find the person.
All the maids and servants all agreed to the promise, and all of them covered their heads deeply.
…
When Hua Ruo came back, Yu Zhu was sitting on the beauty's couch, posing in a very sexy and sultry Ace shape, eating grapes... ahem.
The grapes that had just been picked from the farm were still green at the pinch. They were washed and placed on a crystal plate. They were purple, watery, and huge and plump. When the purple skin was peeled off, the pulp inside was like jasper-colored jade.
The crystal clear water flows onto Yuzhu's milky white fingers, making it look extremely alluring.
He stuffed one into Hua Ruo's mouth, and Yu Zhu also put one into his mouth, muttering: "What's wrong?"
"Don't worry, the arrangement is in the outer courtyard, which is very close to the second master's outer study." Hua Ruo swallowed the sweet and sour fruit pulp and replied.
Yuzhu threw another one into her mouth, "Okay, that's almost enough." Suddenly she spit out the grape seeds and frowned slightly: "Did you see the fragrance of bamboo?"
Hua Ruo stressed helplessly: "Why did my wife forget again? Her name is Yunxiang now. It turned out that she can't be called by that name anymore."
"I know, I know. Isn't this a slip of the tongue? Go on."
"I saw Yunxiang. She is very honest and well-behaved. It seems that she is a third-class maid now." If Hua Ruo hadn't received Yu Zhu's instructions earlier and made a special observation, she might have thought that Yunxiang was just a color.
Some ordinary maids.
Yu Zhu secretly cursed herself for taking it for granted. She expected Hua Ruo to see something. She had to find two suitable people to watch...
While eating the grapes, I counted with my fingers how many people I wanted to "serve" with my body. When I finished eating the bunch of grapes, I had the number in my mind and put down my hands.
Qinsi brought a basin of warm water and waited for Yuzhu to wash his hands, and then took a soft dry handkerchief to slowly dry the water on his hands.
Yu Zhu sighed, picked up the needle and thread from the small rattan basket beside him, and continued to sew the sleeves.
She has never made a whole piece of men's clothes, and Cheng Xunxun has been practicing martial arts since he was a child. He is tall and has strong honey-colored muscles from his beautiful shoulders and arms to his slender legs. His whole body is well-proportioned and there is no trace of fat.
If the clothes were made unevenly and worn on a body like that, you can imagine what kind of effect it would have...
I stabbed another needle in anger. The sewing room must not be so smelly. Then it would be obvious who the sewing person is...
"No, it needs to be pinched here, and the sides should be hidden well..." Mother Ruan couldn't stand it anymore and stepped forward to help.
At this moment, Yin Lian came from outside, "The aunt of the Wu family is here and wants to see my wife."
Yumei?
What is she doing here now? Yu Zhu was full of doubts, put away the needle and thread, and ordered people to come in. (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to subscribe and give rewards. Your support is my greatest
